To automatically extract the environmental feature sensed by a 2D ranging sensor laser scanner, an improved method based on genetic clustering VGA-clustering is presented. By integrating the spatial neighbouring information of range data into fuzzy clustering algorithm, a weighted fuzzy clustering algorithm (WFCA) instead of standard clustering algorithm is introduced to realize feature extraction of laser scanner. Aimed at the unknown clustering number in advance, several validation index functions are used to estimate the validity of different clustering algorithms and one validation index is selected as the fitness function of genetic algorithm so as to determine the accurate clustering number automatically. At the same time, an improved genetic algorithm IVGA on the basis of VGA is proposed to solve the local optimum of clustering algorithm, which is implemented by increasing the population diversity and improving the genetic operators of elitist rule to enhance the local search capacity and to quicken the convergence speed. By the comparison with other algorithms, the effectiveness of the algorithm introduced is demonstrated.展开更多

The standard algorithm requires O(N2) computations. The previous improvement methods endeavor to sequentially reduce redundant computation on condition that there are many different dimensional phase spaces, whose application area and performance improvement degree are limited. This paper presents two fast parallel algorithms: O (N^2/p + logp) time p processors PRAM algo- rithm and O(N^2/p) time p processors LARPBS algorithm. Analysis and results of numeric computation indicate that the speedup of parallel algorithms relative to sequence algorithms is efficient. Compared with the PRAM algorithm, The LARPBS algorithm is practical, optimally scalable and cost optimal.展开更多

In the proposed algorithm, a primary path is dynamically divided into several segments according to the differentiated reliability requirements of the customers. In the SPP-DiR algorithm, the whole primary path should be protected, while in the DSSP- DiR algorithm, only partial segments on the primary path need to be protected, which can reduce more backup bandwidths than that in the SPP-DiR algorithm. Simulation results show that the DSSP-DiR algorithm achieves higher resource utilization ratio, lower protection failure probability, and shorter recovery time than the SPP-DiR algorithm.展开更多

Induction is inherently risky because it is not truth-preserving. If the clustering is considered as an induction process, the key to build a valid clustering is to minimize the risk of clustering. From the viewpoint of modal logic, the clustering can be described as Kripke frames and Kripke models which are reflexive and symmetric. Based on the theory of modal logic, its properties can be described by system B in syntax. Thus, the risk of clustering can be calculated by the deduction relation of system B and proximity induction theorem described. Since the new proposed framework imposes no additional restrictive conditions of clustering algorithm, it is therefore a universal framework. An incremental clustering algorithm can be easily constructed by this framework from any given nonincremental clustering algorithm. The experiments show that the lower the a priori risk is, the more effective this framework is. It can be demonstrated that this framework is generally valid.展开更多

A problem of CSPS algorithm is that, after a primary path is selected, the success probability to select an SRLG-diverse backup path for it is low. If SRLG is taken into account when computing the primary path, then the probability to successfully select an SRLG-diverse backup path will be much increased. Based on this idea, an active SRLG-diverse path selection (ASPS) algorithm is proposed. To actively avoid selecting those SRLG links, when computing the primary path, a link that share risk with more links is assigned a larger link cost. To improve the resource utilization ratio, it is permitted that the bandwidth resources are shared among backup paths. What is more, differentiated reliability (DiR) requirements of different customers are considered in ASPS algorithm. The simulation results show that, compared with CSPS algorithm, ASPS algorithm not only increases successful protection probability but also improves resource utilization ratio.展开更多
